I thought Interstellar was beautiful, but more promising in theory than in practice. I think it tried to tackle too many major themes and ended up kind of emotionally empty. I love Chris Nolan and Inception is one of my favourite films, but he's not very great at handling emotional moments, which is even more obvious when he tries to write and direct them.
Also that giant stainless steel fridge of a robot is the most impractical AI design I've ever seen and it took me right out of the story.
